Twilight Captain – Nick Murphy
The Race: We had another strong breeze for Summer Race 7, this time a steady Southerly at around 10 to 15 knots. The rain discouraged a few crew, but we still had 44 boats starting and all finished. After a bit of prompting from our Handicap Officer, Bram, all submitted their POB lists.
Please remember:
- POB lists are to be submitted before the race. If special circumstances mean that you are unable to do this, then you can enter the crew up to 24 hours after the race. Results published will be provisional up until this time.
- Crew lists are refreshed each Monday so you need to enter your crew after Monday 12.00am for the next race.
New crew: We have several crew looking for yachts at the moment. If you have room, please consider taking a new person out for a sail. Please contact our Membership Secretary, Chris Gaskell, using the Contact Form or directly on 0432 018 081.
Autumn Series: Next week’s race 3 Feb is the 1st Race of the Autumn series, so once again our weekly results will be contributing to the overall season pointscore.
Thanks: We wish to thank our Course Setter, Mark Rhodes, and our Starters, Hugh Vaughan and James Curr.
Keep sailing and stay safe!
